Our Verdict

ASUS TUF VG27VQ

Samsung Odyssey G3 S24AG30

The ASUS TUF VG27VQ and the Samsung Odyssey G3 S24AG30 are both gaming monitors with similar features. They both have a VA panel with a 1080p resolution, but the ASUS has a slightly higher 165Hz refresh rate. The ASUS has better motion handling due to its quick response time, but motion still doesn't look great on it. The ASUS gets much brighter in SDR, so it's a better choice for use in bright rooms. In dark rooms, the Acer has a higher native contrast, but this can vary between units.
